<p>A bar manager has been jailed for life for the murder of his girlfriend and their 10-month-old daughter in a &#8220;sustained and fearsome&#8221; knife attack after hearing voices saying he should kill them.</p>
<p>Anthony Marsh plunged the weapon into half-naked Stephanie Bellinger, 24, more than 30 times as she slept in the bedroom of their home in Totton, Hampshire, in February this year.</p>
<p>The prosecution said the killing of Miss Bellinger had &#8220;powerful elements of sexual motivation and revenge&#8221;.</p>
<p>Their daughter Lili Marsh was stabbed once through the head as she lay on the same bed.</p>
<p>The 22-year-old admitted the killings, but denied murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility.</p>
<p>Marsh closed his eyes as the jury at Winchester Crown Court gave its verdict after 10 hours of deliberations.</p>
<p>The judge, Mr Justice Holroyde, will pass sentence on Wednesday morning when he will tell Marsh the minimum term he will serve before he is eligible for parole.</p>
<p>The jury heard during the two-week trial that Marsh suffered from bipolar disorder and the family were in £13,000 debt, partly because he lost his job after he stole from a pub he worked in.</p>
<p>He often fled the family home and went to other cities, sleeping rough before handing himself in at hospitals.</p>
<p>Marsh told police he heard voices telling him to kill his girlfriend and daughter. He did not kill the couple&#8217;s two and half-year-old son, who he left locked in the house after the murders, because he was able to resist the voices.</p>
